眾所周知，美國人尤其是年輕人，在溝通中經常喜歡使用俚語作為口頭禪，很多即使英語非常棒的小伙伴剛到美國跟身邊的同學溝通偶爾也會發懵，為預防發懵，芥末君總結了一大串美國人喜歡的口頭禪，與同學們分享，預防發懵～

1. You bet. 你說的沒錯
 
bet有打賭、下賭注的意思，所以You bet有種你讀對了的意思，跟That's right還有 Exactly意思差不多。

2. Way to go.干得好
這句話用來稱贊別人做的很棒、干得好的意思，跟Good job的意思差不多。

3. There / Here you go. 給你
這句話常用在別人把東西交到你手中時會說的一句話，比如你去店里買東西付完錢，店員把東西遞給你就會說there you go. 

4. I was just like.  我就這樣說...
I was just like…的意思就是“我就好像…”，是用在描述一件事情給別人聽的時候，敘述當時的情況，類似于我們中文常說的“我那時候就……”

比如：
A: When the man was about to kick the dog, I was just like, “Hey! Don't do that!"當時那個人要踢狗的時候，我就說“喂，別這樣做”
B: Wow! That was the right thing to do.你做得對！

5. Whatever 隨便啦、無所謂
 
這句話跟我們中文里的“隨便、無所謂”是一樣的意思，whatever有時也出現在句尾，表示who cares，是很常見的用法。不過，據美國一項調查顯示，這句常掛在嘴邊的whatever竟然登上了最令人反感的口頭禪寶座！當你用whatever來回答別人時，有種不在乎的感覺，所以whatever也不能亂用啊。

6. The thing is, we need to talk. 重點是，我們必須得談談。
說到重點的時候我們通常會想到“The important thing is…”，但其實直接說“ The thing is… ”就有要表達重點的意思了，也可以說Here's the thing. 

7. Kind of. 有點兒
kind of 跟 sort of 的意思一樣都是用來表示“一點點、還可以、好像有、有一點”的意思，比如當有人問你 Do you like tea? 如果你有一點喜歡也不排斥的話，你就可以說 “Kind of.”。kind of / sort of 都可以用在很多地方，而且美國人說的時候很快，聽起來就像 kinda 或 sorta，在打字的時候也可以這樣打。

比如：
A: This is kind of expensive. 有點貴
B: Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. 我也這么覺得。

8. Guess what? 你知道嗎？
當要敘述一件令人驚訝的事情的時候，美國人常在句首加上Guess what?或You know what?來加強語氣

比如：
Guess what? He is going to get married. 你知道嗎？他要結婚了！

9. Exactly. That's what I'm saying. 沒錯，就是這樣！
 
當你要符合別人說的話時，可以說exactly (沒錯), obviously/ apparently (顯然地), absolutely (絕對地), definitely (沒錯) 來附和他，然后再陳述你的看法。
